hello
some times i find tiny patches of ore somewhere inside my base
something ridiculusly small like 2 patches with 500 ore total (can become 20000 tho due to productivity)
is there an easy way to spot these like some F4 indicator or a mod or something?
halp
thanks

Couple mods that adds map labels for resources:
- Resource Labels Updated - This one requires a key combo press and creates the map labels on demand.
CTRLSHIFT+G to create,CTRLSHIFT+H to clear. - Resource Map Label Marker - This one creates them automatically. I'm not sure how it will behave on a pre-existing save (never tried it in that way).

Double check the mod settings for both. They may have minimum patch size detection settings.napouser wrote: ↑Thu Dec 30, 2021 3:28 pmniceFuryoftheStars wrote: ↑Wed Dec 29, 2021 4:48 pmCouple mods that adds map labels for resources:

Re: find small patches
Blah... just realized I put the wrong controls for one of those mods in my post. Corrected. Should've been SHIFT, not CTRL.
